         The treasurer of state shall invest or deposit, subject to chapter
      12F and as provided by law, any of the public funds not currently
      needed for operating expenses and shall do so upon receipt of monthly
      notice from the director of the department of administrative services
      of the amount not so needed.  In the event of loss on redemption or
      sale of securities invested as prescribed by law, and if the
      transaction is reported to the executive council, neither the
      treasurer nor director of the department of administrative services
      is personally liable but the loss shall be charged against the funds
      which would have received the profits or interest of the investment
      and there is appropriated from the funds the amount so required.
         Investment income may be used to maintain compensating balances,
      pay transaction costs for investments made by the treasurer of state,
      and pay administrative and related overhead costs incurred by the
      treasurer of state in the management of money.  The treasurer of
      state shall coordinate with the affected departments to determine how
      compensating balances, transaction costs, or money management and
      related costs will be established.  All charges against a retirement
      system must be documented and notification of the charges shall be
      made to the appropriate administration of the retirement system
      affected.
         The treasurer of state, with the approval of the investment board
      of the Iowa public employees' retirement system, may conduct a
      program of lending securities in the Iowa public employees'
      retirement system portfolio.  When securities are loaned as provided
      by this paragraph, the treasurer shall act in the manner provided for
      investment of moneys in the Iowa public employees' retirement fund
      under section 97B.7A.  The treasurer of state shall report at least
      annually to the investment board of the Iowa public employees'
      retirement system on the program and shall provide additional
      information on the program upon the request of the investment board
      or the employees of the Iowa public employees' retirement system.
